great way to pay tribute to him by releasing it to as many screens as they can. At least I really hope they do. If you can't go to see it. I'd say it's worth renting anyway.

the back-story of Nolan's life and it reminded me of movies like 127 Hours.I have noticed that some critics and fans have complained that the movie is either too long or has some plot holes. I just kept on thinking, the movie although it has a very simple story, covered what it needed too realistically and I didn't personally find any plot holes; plus the time-frame was just perfect.What a great shame that Paul Walker died recently, because although greatly missed, he should rightly so, be very proud of this movie and many others that he had done previously , and had so much more to offer as a great actor.I urge everyone to see this movie as soon as possible - whatever the format for Walker's performance but also, the movie as a whole is genuinely great. Paul Walker for sure will be missed.

others like those. I like his other movies but I really like this movie. I think we lost one hell of an actor when Paul died

making landfall. Unfortunately, Nolan loses his wife in childbirth and his baby was born premature and is hooked up to a ventilator. Facing the hurricane's wrath, Nolan must fight the odds to keep himself and his baby alive.To see Paul tackle a role like this amazed me, because he was mostly an action star. If he survived, it would have been interesting to see the roles he would have had. This film shows that Paul can effectively carry out a dramatic role, and does so impressively by working solo. Outside of his signature Fast and the Furious movies, this would have been his best role. Genesis Rodriguez was in the film as Nolan's wife, but mostly portrayed as flashbacks. But she is very gorgeous and talented.Overall, Hours is a small drama that wasn't on anybody's radar, including mine. But because of Paul's unfortunate passing, I had to see this and I am glad I did. It is an intense drama with themes of fatherhood. Much like Sandra Bullock in Gravity and Tom Hanks in Cast Away, Paul uses his solo screen time talking to the baby or even a dog to get his emotions through. It's a shame this film did not get a wide theater release because I was gripping my seat the entire time. A great film this is. I rate this film 9/10.

2012 film about a tsunami hitting Thailand."Hours" adds to its degree of difficulty by allowing one actor to carry the vast majority of the film like Robert Redford in 2013's "All is Lost", and especially Tom Hanks in the 2000 film "Cast Away" . This whole situation is all the more poignant because the star of "Hours", Paul Walker, didn't live to see this movie released. Walker plays Nolan Hayes, a New Orleans resident, who takes his wife, Abby Genesis Rodriguez , to a local hospital when complications arise with her pregnancy. Abby dies and Nolan's baby girl is not yet breathing on her own, needing to be on a respirator for about 48 hours.Then, Hurricane Katrina robs the hospital of its power and the subsequent flooding takes out the back-up generators and forces the hospital to evacuate all its patients, staff, nurses and doctors. Since the baby can't be moved, Nolan remains there alone to keep her alive using a generator which he must crank by hand every 2-3 minutes , while trying to signal for help and protecting himself and his little girl from various other dangers that the disaster brings their way. Minutes stretch into hours and Nolan grows increasingly desperate for help to arrive before either he or his baby succumbs to their overwhelming circumstances."Hours" is both an excellent thriller and a great drama and is the kind of movie that can even make a tough guy tear up. Walker is remarkable in this film. He does the best acting of his career, striking the perfect balance between his considerable emotional depth and his boyish charm. The tragedy and tension in the movie competed for my emotional attention with the sadness I felt believing that this film could have been a game-changer for Paul Walker's career. Either way, "Hours" deserves an "A".

look after his infant daughter, after Katrina strikes. It's not very long before the whole power goes out, and he has to solely rely on a generator to keep her daughter alive, where after every six minutes, the numbers will drop if he stops winding the control. You should see how many times he runs back and forth down to the power supply room, half flooded by the way. Certain obstacles and incidents, later thwart his quest, including some real unsavory heartless sons of bitches. Hours works so well for many reasons, one being Walker's realistic and engaging performance, probably one of his best. Apart from Katrina, he has to deal with a much greater tragedy, as having just lost his wife, Abigail another hottie of course who died in labor, apparently stress related, so Walker's not having the best of days. We see some of their earlier time spent together in a sufficient number of heartwarming, sexy, and inspiring flashbacks. Too what I liked, was how Walker spent a lot of time, ranting to his newborn, which in the early stages, I admit got a little annoying, but then it became quite interesting as god knows what s..t he was gonna pour out next. Another thing that was annoying, was his watch sounding off after every six minutes, but you gotta do what you gotta to do. What would you do? This is one of those movies that poses that question. I was quite impressed by Walker, as he had some really powerfully dramatic acting moments. Hopefully he can improve on this which next each film. Highly recommended drama of inspiration and hope.

line to keep his ailing daughter alive in a defunct hospital that gets bombarded by Hurricane Katrina. Depending on the person you may see a bit of yourself in the main character. You might be able to envision yourself in the same circumstances and how you would act and rationale every action you took. I am not asking you to pick through this movie with a fine tooth comb. I am just asking you to simply spend two hours of your life enjoying Paul Walker in a vehicle other than a Skyline. I promise it is time well spent.
